The Whispering Wind Sword

68. Chapter 68's

Tiong Fa was sitting pensively, facing a small lighted candle lighting up his small room. A private room, the only place where he could feel completely safe.

Under where he sat was a secret passage, the floor where his chair was located could open quickly as he pressed one of the secret levers behind his desk. His own table was full of secret weapons.

In this small room, Tiong Fa felt safe.It has been two weeks since the charade he suggested to the great Lord Huang Jin was finally implemented. Since two weeks ago, Tiong Fa was no longer an adviser in the Huang family. It had been two weeks, Tiong Fa became an outcast. But for two weeks Tiong Fa felt his name as full power.

Long before Ding Tao happened, Tiong Fa, who was in charge of forming a spy network for the Huang family, already had his own network. This room was one where Tiong Fa held a meeting with his subordinates outside. As a result of the incident with Ding Tao, Tiong Fa who was banished from the Huang family, now this room was turned into a home for Tiong Fa.

This room was built in a quite famous prostitution complex in Luo Yang. As the capital of the kingdom many warriors-devilers of the great college try to find a name or make a living here. All sorts of factions could be found in Luo Yang.

A suitable place for Tiong Fa to do his job, collect data and steal the secrets of college science in the martial world.

Being a silat whiz, does not necessarily provide income. Being a hero may be an interesting dream, but in reality, even martial arts need to eat. Silat science is not a science that can be studied with half-and-half, studying silat requires high focus and commitment. After successfully training his knowledge, a martial artist who has just plunged into the real world, then realized if he does not have other skills outside of fighting, it is not easy to find income to live.

Seeing the silat hero walking gallantly, weapons tucked in the waist or on the back, luxurious clothes and robes of silk. Dine in luxurious restaurants, have fun in high-class gambling and prostitution establishments. Fishing

young people to enjoy the same success, it never occurred to me, where they get the money to fulfill all the fun. All they knew was learning silat, trying to become famous with their skills swinging swords, and they thought money would come by itself.

The reality is far from that. First, to become a famous champion is not an easy thing, with many who are interested in learning silat, of course, it is not easy to be the best.

Second, having a name does not bring money. If you want money, of course, you have to sell that expertise, whether you are a teacher, a bodyguard or sell other services. In short, no matter how high your silat science, you end up just being a guard dog for them who have money and power.

Those who have high prestige and are reluctant to work for others, it is not uncommon to end up choosing the black path.

Most others choose to work as bodyguards for officials and the wealthy, at freight forwarding companies, as silat teachers or sell intelligence on the side of the road.

In the midst of the difficulty of life armed with silat, Tiong Fa used the wealth of the Huang family to attract the jago-jago financial difficulties into his influence.

Several tens of years ago young Tiong Fa and young Huang Jin, being heroes in their own regions, had a dream to explore the martial world. Their victories in the matches made them have the confidence to dream. Forget the advice of Huang Jin's grandfather who forbade his descendants to be too deep in the martial world and better to pursue trade affairs.

Having the same dream the two start working together. Huang Jin's uncle, Huang Yunshu had an opinion that corresponded with Huang Jin's, albeit as long as Father Huang's

Jin lived he did not dare to express his opinion, but when the leadership moved into the hands of Huang Jin, eagerly the old whiz supported Huang Jin's wishes.

But that was decades ago. Decades have passed and the road to world domination is far from being achieved.

Tiong Fa who was getting fuller with the experience, had long since thrown away that dream. Since then, secretly the path of Tiong Fa and the path of Huang Jin were no longer in the same direction.

Tiong Fa who in his work, was more in touch with the wide world opened his eyes. The martial world was wider than they had ever imagined. Big name like

Shaolin, Wudang, Hoasan, Kunlun, Kongtong, Emei and Kaipang are not empty names. Although most of them were in a period of decline it did not mean that the Huang family would easily advance forward.

Huang Jin was also more realistic in achieving his dreams. If he had imagined that he could reach the peak in his own time, now great Lord Huang Jin is concentrating more on preparing his eldest son to achieve that dream while he tries to build a solid foundation for his son.

But it did not appeal to Tiong Fa, what was the benefit to him if he had to work hard for the success of Huang Jin's descendants?

Indeed in front of Huang Jin he once said, that striving for the success of Huang Jin's son is the same as seeking a good future for his descendants who are in the Huang family. But behind that, hidden dissatisfaction, because Tiong Fa did not care about his offspring. All he wants is power, name, pleasure for himself. Tiong Fa did not care about the child he got from his wife.

He was married to his current wife, just so that he could enter into being a core member of the Huang family.

For a long time Tiong Fa had been in doubt about his position in the Huang family, and as time went on, Tiong Fa was increasingly doubtful whether he would succeed in achieving his personal wish by staying with the Huang family.

His defeat of Ding Tao triggered the great Lord Huang Jin to send himself seizing the Whispering Wind Sword from Ding Tao by force, opening up a good opportunity for him to get out of the Huang family without losing the advantage he had gained from the Huang family.

That's why the slippery-brained Tiong Fa could fall into a chaotic state. This was the prowess of Tiong Fa, he could already see the holes in the master plan

Huang Jin was in too much of a hurry. Cleverly he let the plan go on and in his mind, long before Physician Shao Yong broke through the weakness, he had already prepared a way out for the Great Master

Huang Jin, of course, a way out in his favor.

Unfortunately he failed to persuade Great Master Huang Jin to let him carry the Whispering Wind Sword with him.

But it did not weigh too much on Tiong Fa's mind. Without the Whispering Wind Sword whatever he got this time was quite large. The capital of the Huang family he used to finance his secret organization.

In a relatively short time Tiong Fa had already mastered several gambling and prostitution businesses that were large enough as a source of funds. He also easily obtained silat whiz-jagoan, because he has been building networks for years. Even along with him, also follow some of the heroes from within the Huang family itself.

The people he had built up for a long time, to be more loyal to him than the Huang family. Yes, the story of Tiong Fa, not a mere essay story, because in reality Tiong Fa secretly began to build his own strength, regardless of the Huang family.

For the sake of maintaining the capital flow of the Huang family, Tiong Fa did not rush to remove his mask. As long as the cow was still milked, Tiong Fa would milk her.

During these two weeks, sitting in his little room, he felt himself to be king.

But not tonight, tonight he's receiving a guest in his little room. Tonight, sitting on his royal chair, Tiong Fa did not feel safe. Even behind all the secret weapons and security, Tiong Fa could not sit without feeling threatened by danger, facing his guests tonight.

Standing before him was the current generation Kongtong party leader, Chairman Zong Weixia, his eyes stare sharp and wild. Tiong Fa felt like he was dealing with a ferocious tiger. It would not be wrong if one said it was better to sit on the back of a tiger than deal with Zong Weixia.

Dress all green student model, with a loose dress size, hair and mustache neatly arranged, with, if not looking at Zong Weixia's pair of wild and sharp eyes maybe one would think he was a harmless eccentric student.

But even without looking at Zong Weixia's pair of eyes, even Tiong Fa, who already knew the reputation of the Chairman of this Kongtong college, knew how dangerous this person before him was, His loose-fitting clothes hid his strangely shaped weapon. A pair of serrated wheels mounted on a piece of iron chain.

No one knew how long the range of his weapon was and how exactly Zong Weixia used his weapon. Because every time he fought, Zong Weixia never let his opponent live.

Two cups of wine were served, no one touched it. Since the wine was still newly warmed and puffed thin steam, until the wine became cold.

Cold sweat slowly dripped from Tiong Fa's forehead, a gripping silence filled the room. Uninvited Zong Weixia came with a confident step to the brothel, without saying much, the figure walked towards the room where Tiong Fa was.

One of Tiong Fa's heroes, who did not know him, tried to hold Zong Weixia, but with one deadly attack, not until one passing step he was dead.

That was Zong Weixia's attack style, heinous, without any development, but quick and precise, always deployed with full force. As if winning or losing must be determined in one of those moves.

Almost similar to Ding Tao, Zong Weixia had been studying one style for many years. The difference is that Zong Weixia focuses more on the most vicious, fiercest and fastest attack. Trained the moves with terrible perseverance, so that he was able to convince the speed, strength and accuracy of each attack.

The report quickly reached Tiong Fa's ears, not wanting to provoke the fury of the windy Zong Weixia, quickly Tiong Fa ordered his people to give way to the leader of the Kongtong college. Tiong Fa was sure that behind his wind-like style, there was no way that Zong Weixia would do anything without calculation. The one who really winds up and does things without

a clear calculation, will not survive in a cruel martial world.

But now that he was finally dealing with Zong Weixia, Tiong Fa started to feel regret for his decision.

Zong Weixia let alone Tiong Fa being distressed by his existence, one satisfaction for Zong Weixia as she watched others become nervous being nearby. The more they were scared, the more happy he was. Especially if that person, that kind of person was Tiong Fa, a person who had power, had brains and guts, but was unabashedly trembling under the sight of his wild and ferocious eyes. His satisfaction also doubled.

" Hmmm...I heard you broke away from the Huang family, is that true?", Zong Weixia finally broke the silence.

Tiong Fa was unwilling to gamble with his life, he did not know how much Zong Weixia already knew of his secret and he was unwilling to risk his life by telling lies. It is better to be honest now, slowly distilling his confidants back into one smaller circle. Then just prepare one or two undisclosed Aces in preparation to face Zong Weixia later on.

" Yes, that's right, where did Elder Zong hear that from?" tiong Fa replied while asking back.

" I know from where, it's my business, now it's me who asks and you answer enough". replied Zong Weixia with a grin.

Swallowing spit, Tiong Fa with an annoyed heart but a frightened face, nodded.

" Is it true that the matter of your exit from the Huang family, has something to do with the Whispering Wind Sword?" once again Zong Weixia asked.

" Yes, right".this time it was just a short answer from Tiong Fa.

" But is it true that I said that the news on the outside is that you have attacked a young man named Ding Tao and picked up the Wind Sword

Whispering from her is just a lie?"

" Not really, the news has a point. Indeed I have attacked and retrieved the Whispering Wind Sword from the young man. But I did so at the behest of the great Lord Huang Jin and the sword was currently in his hands".

" Can I hold your word?"

"Of course, I know there's no point in me lying to the Elder".

" Are you sure that the sword is the Whispering Wind Sword?"

"Related."

" Do you know where Huang Jin is keeping them at the moment?"

" No, but I'm sure the sword is still in his house".

For a moment, the sharp eyes of Zong Weixia probed the look on Tiong Fa's face, looking for any trace of lies there. Tiong Fa's face did not change the color of a chameleon's skin, it could change as needed, whereas what was in his heart no one knew. Zong Weixia knew exactly the kind of person Tiong Fa was, but all of his explanations were reasonable and in accordance with the news he had obtained earlier.

" She Tiong, if you lie, wherever you hide, even if you make a nest underground. I'm gonna find you, get your skin cleaned, hang you out in the sun, gouge your eyes, cut your tongue and cut off your cock before I leave you to die. You understand what I mean?"

―Yes, I understand.‖―Is there any information you would like to change?‖ermark

―No, all the captions I gave, it is.‖ermark

―Good, may it be, for your own good, Zong Weixia said, ending her interrogation.

The wine cup was not touched at all, he stood up without saying a word. As when he came, so did the time to go. He did not wait to be invited and delivered, going out at will, as if he were entering his own house.

Zong Weixia had only reached the door when Tiong Fa suddenly asked, asking,

" Does the elder work alone? Or is there someone else working with the elder?" Zong Weixia turned around, next to her eyebrows raised, asking.

" The elder knows now that I am working alone, separated from the Huang family, but Tiong Fa is not a fool, Tiong Fa knows his own strength, without a strong backing it is impossible to last long. If the Elder wanted to be generous, bowing respectfully Tiong Fa expressed what was inside his head.

Zong Weixia was stunned for a moment, a cruel grin did not leave her face. For Tiong Fa, that moment seemed long, because Zong Weixia was thinking, in what way he wanted to torture and kill Tiong Fa. When Zong Weixia finally answered her heart was relieved.

" Heh.., you have a wearable ability. If I have to, I will come to you" replied Zong Weixia.

After answering Zong Weixia turned around and left, like nothing had ever happened. The blood of the dead Tiong Fa people in his hands was still soaking the walls and floor. At least Zong Weixia did not glance.

He also did not turn his head, so he did not see the mocking grin that formed on Tiong Fa's face. Zong Weixia could not make a decision. That was what Tiong Fa could pull from Zong Weixia's reaction to his question. Although Zong Weixia replied as if she could decide, it was just that at the moment she did not want to decide. But for Tiong Fa

the problem was obvious, Zong Weixia did not know whether to accept it or not.

That meant above Zong Weixia there were still others playing. This made Tiong Fa feel excited, but it was also pounding at the same time. If there is anyone who can order the chairman of Kong Tong college, of course this person is not just anyone. Was Ren Zuocan's hand behind Zong Weixia? If it wasn't Ren Zuocan, would there be any other figure who possessed such terrifying power that could use a person like Zong Weixia as a subordinate? Is there still a mysterious figure who moves in the dark of the night in this martial world? If yes, then what is the motivation? Can Tiong Fa use this mysterious figure for his personal gain?

The second problem he had to think about was, who was the insider who had already leaked the secret? But it was a small affair and Tiong Fa did not want to think about it for too long.

Working with a lot of people, leaks must be there. The important thing is that he must have an ace that no one knows about.

Looking around, Tiong Fa swore in his heart. Everything he did to build this room now was useless. Tiong Fa needed to think of a new place, at least in a few moments instead of the future.

Standing there for some time, Tiong Fa's mind worked hard. But he had yet to discover who was the mastermind behind Zhong Weixia's visit. One thing was certain the Huang family would soon get the same visit. Tiong Fa did not care, it did not occur to mind at all to send a message for the great Lord Huang Jin to get ready for a friendly visit.

What was now on Tiong Fa's mind at the moment was that he needed to eliminate the vexation in his heart.

" Yan De !!! Yan De !!! Come here, you son of a bitch!"

" Good master, well", an old man dressed in pink ran into Tiong Fa's room while bowing down.

" What's wrong, sir?" tanyanya still bowed respectfully.

―I heard you have a new girl who is not ready to receive guests?‖ermark

―Yes sir, there were just three new girls from the village.‖ermark

―Are they pretty?‖ermark

―Lumayan sir, not too bad, just still need a lot of education.‖ermark

―Have anyone given a upbringing?‖ermark

―Not sir, hehe, would you be generous to give them a little upbringing?‖, that, the old man asked with a mischievous smile, now that he knew what he was called Tiong Fa for.

" Don't frown, you drive them here and tell Hong Wan and Hong Wei that no one can interfere".

The old man left quickly. No more telling what happened in that room then.

But what needs to be considered is what Zong Weixia did. The chairman of the Kongtong school went to an inn and booked a room with a window facing the street. Immediately after entering his room, Zong Weixia took out a small flag. The little flag was put on the window.

Everyone passing by would naturally be able to see the mark, even though they would not know what it meant.

Late at night, a shadowy figure flashed entering the inn silently. A row of 3 people entered in the same secret way. A moment later,

Zong Weixia opened the window and retracted the small flag she had installed. For some time nothing happened, then the 4 people who entered the inn secretly went out in the same way as when they entered before.
